20080199955 | Tissue Infiltration Apparatus - A tissue infiltration apparatus ( | 08-21-2008 |
20100055663 | METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A TISSUE PROCESSOR AND TISSUE PROCESSOR - A method for controlling a tissue processor and a tissue processor for processing tissue samples is described. A retort is provided comprising a cover that can be opened and closed by an operator. The retort cover is closed prior to tissue processing. The actuation state of a first and a second operating element can be determined. An operator is prompted to confirm unlocking of the closed retort cover by actuating a second operating element. The tissue processing is interrupted when an actuation of the second operating element is determined and the closed retort cover is unlocked and is continued after the retort cover is once again locked. After having completed tissue processing the retort cover is unlocked. By means of the described method and tissue processor improper intervention during ongoing tissue processing is prevented. | 03-04-2010 |
20100099199 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ASCERTAINING REAGENT QUALITY - A method for determining reagent quality in a device having multiple treatment stations for the treatment of at least one of cytological and histological prepared specimens and an apparatus for performing this method are described. The method comprises providing a carrier element that comprises at least one test material; transferring and treating the carrier element having test material according to a predefined sequence in a plurality of the treatment stations together with the specimens; and evaluating the test material by means of an evaluation device after treatment in the last treatment station in sequence. The described method and apparatus achieve that reagent quality can be determined automatically and the reagents can be replaced at an optimum point in time. | 04-22-2010 |
20100248301 | Tissue Embedding Apparatus, And Method For Operating A Tissue Embedding Apparatus - The present invention relates to a tissue embedding apparatus ( | 09-30-2010 |
20100323395 | Method For Automatically Processing Tissue Samples In A Tissue Processor - In the automatic processing of tissue samples in a tissue processor, the tissue samples are placed in a retort of the tissue processor. The tissue samples are exposed to a fixation reagent (FIX) in the retort. Afterwards, the tissue samples are exposed to a dehydrating reagent (ALK). Thereafter, the retort is cleared with an intermedium (INT) for removing the dehydrating reagent (ALK). Finally, the tissue samples are treated with a carrier material (CAR). Between the clearing of the retort with the intermedium (INT) and the treatment of the tissue samples with the carrier material (CAR), the retort is cleared with a carrier material protecting reagent (CARPRO) in which the intermedium (INT) and the carrier material (CAR) can be mixed. | 12-23-2010 |
20130141246 | Display Of A System State Of A Treatment Device For Microscopic Samples - The invention relates to a method of displaying a system state of an automatic treatment device, a corresponding display system which is configured for carrying out the method, and a treatment device equipped with the display system. At least one system parameter ( | 06-06-2013 |
